ROOTED to Rise: The Journey Back to Myself

I Wasn't Supposed to Rise. But I Did.

There are moments in life that shape you before you even understand what’s happening. My moment came at three years old, standing in a room where love had been replaced by violence. My mother was on the ground. My father was above her. And I, a child who barely understood the world, held a broom—trying, in my tiny way, to make it stop.

That’s my earliest memory of love.

Love that wasn’t safe. Love that hurt. Love that I had to protect myself from.

That moment was just the beginning. My father left. My mother stayed, but not in the way I needed. She found warmth for children that weren’t her own, while I stood on the outside, watching, wondering why I wasn’t enough.

I have known loneliness in ways most people never talk about.

I have known what it feels like to be left, over and over again—by family, by friends, by the people who were supposed to love me unconditionally.

I have known what it feels like to believe that pain is just part of existence.

And for years, I believed it.

I carried my trauma like a second skin. I learned how to be strong, independent, capable—but not whole. I built a life that looked good on the outside, yet I was still the little girl with the broom, trying to make sense of a world that kept breaking me.

But something inside me refused to die.

Something inside me knew that I was not meant to just survive.

And so, I did what I was never taught to do: I started healing.

ROOTED to Rise: The Blueprint for Becoming

Healing didn’t come overnight. It came in layers. It came in moments of clarity, in undoing generations of survival and stepping into something greater—self-mastery.

I had no roadmap. But as I did the work, I discovered the steps—the ones I took and the ones I now guide other women through. That’s how ROOTED to Rise was born.

• Reflect – Understanding Root Causes of Self-Doubt

  Before I could grow, I had to see where I was planted. I had to recognize the ways my past shaped me—the self-doubt, the perfectionism, the people-pleasing. But I also had to recognize that I was not my past.

  Orient – Reclaiming Identity and Personal Power

  Healing requires breaking open—not as a sign of weakness, but as a sign of readiness. I had to let go of the belief that emotions made me weak, that vulnerability was dangerous. I had to let myself feel.

  Own – Embodying Your Worth and Healing from Within

  I spent years shrinking myself to be acceptable, likable, safe. But I was never meant to be small. None of us are. The moment I stopped apologizing for my existence, for my story, for my truth—that's when I reclaimed my power.

  Transform – Rewriting Limiting Beliefs

  Healing isn't just about removing pain—it's about replacing it with something better. I had to learn joy, softness, worthiness. I had to rewrite what I believed about love, about success, about what I deserved.

  Elevate – Sustaining Growth and Breaking Generational Patterns

  A tree doesn't just grow—it gives shade, it bears fruit, it creates life beyond itself. ROOTED to Rise is about elevation. It's about stepping fully into our power and ensuring patterns of the past end with us.

  Deliver – Living Unapologetically and Owning Your Power

  ROOTED to Rise culminates in delivery. It's about showing up authentically in all spaces, owning your journey, and making sure no other woman walks this journey alone.

This Is Your Time to Rise.

For too long, too many of us have carried generational wounds, feeling like healing is for other people—not for us.

We’ve lived as though we have to prove our worth before we can take up space.

We’ve worked harder, sacrificed more, and still felt like we weren’t enough.

But enough is enough.

It’s time to root down.
It’s time to break open.
It’s time to own our power.
It’s time to transform.
It’s time to expand.

ROOTED to Rise isn’t just another program. It’s a movement. A movement for women who are done shrinking, done waiting for permission, done carrying the weight of a world that was never designed for us to thrive in.

And I want you to be part of it.
